Glee – Born To Hand Jive lyrics
Mercedes:
Before I was born, late one night,
My papa said everything's alright
The doctor laughed when Ma lay down
With her stomach bouncing all around
Cause the beebop stork was about to arrive
Mama gave birth to the hand-jive
Mercedes and Marley:
I could barely walk when I milked a cow
When I was three I pushed a plow
Jake:
While chopping wood I moved my legs
I started dancing when I gathered eggs
Marley and Jake:
The townfolk clapped, I was only five
He'll out dance 'em all, he's born to hand-jive
Mercedes:
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah - everybody
Mercedes with New Directions, Mike and Kitty:
Born to hand-jive, baby,
Born to hand-jive, baby
Mercedes:
How low can you go?
Marley:
How low can you go?
Jake:
How low can you go?
Ryder:
How low can you go?
Jake:
Higher!
Ryder:
Higher!
Marley:
Higher!
Mercedes:
And higher, yeah!
Ryder:
Now can you hand jive, baby?
Ryder and Mercedes with New Directions, Mike and Kitty:
Oh can you hand jive baby? (Mercedes: Baby, yeah!)
